USDCAD | Across the G10 complex overnight implied volatility has jumped with eyes on Fed Chair Powell’s testimony, while FOMC minutes are also released. However, today’s most volatile currency is expected to be the Canadian Dollar given that there will also be the release of the Bank of Canada’s monetary policy report. USDCAD vols have surged 6.950 vols to 13.075, which is the highest of 2019. This implies that USDCAD ATM break-evens = 72pips (meaning that option traders need to see a move of at least 72pip in either direction in order to realise gains). Risk reversals are relatively neutral at 0.2, suggesting that while this shows a slight topside bias, price action is likely to be contained. Resistance is situated at 1.3145 and 1.3200, while on the downside support is seen at 1.3040-50.
